EXtensible Host Controller Interface (xHCI) is a computer interface specification that defines a register-level description of a host controller for Universal Serial Bus (USB), which is capable of interfacing with USB 1.x, 2.0, and 3.x compatible devices. The Intel site here says that Windows 8, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10 have a native in-box USB 3.0 driver, and that Intel is not releasing a specific Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller Driver for Windows 8, 8.1, or 10. The controller named Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 0100 (Microsoft) in this image experiences the issue discussed. Contact your system vendor and get a BIOS update, if required. Those updates are usually available on the vendor’s Web site. DONT INSTALL INTEL USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller Driver when you want use external devices on your USB 2.0 Port. Discussion in 'Alienware 14 and M14x' started by HansTee, Jun 28, 2012. No matter what your purpose is, for tacking the Intel USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller driver not compatible or not working problem or updating the xHCI driver, it is an unavoidable method for you to make your USB 3.0 external or flash hard drive run properly on Windows 8 or 10.

An 'Intel(R) USB 3.0/3.1 eXtensible Host Controller Driver' named iusb3xhc.sys, has to be installed by pointing to the file named iusb3xhc.inf (after the installation the related device is named 'Intel(R) USB 3.0/3.1 eXtensible Host Controller'). Windows* 8, Windows* 8.1, and Windows® 10 have a native in-box USB 3.0 driver. Intel is not releasing a specific Intel® USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller.

(Debugging steps to help investigate the root-cause, not a solution)

This is for anyone who's encountering an issue with devices that don't work when plugged into a USB 3 port on a machine running Windows 8, with the symptom that the device is not functional AND the Device Manager app shows the device yellow-banged out with 'Code 43'.

The instructions below show how to capture a log file that will help diagnose this, based on the Microsoft Windows USB blog here:

  • Open an elevated command prompt window

One way is to type 'command prompt' on the Start screen. Right-click on the Command Prompt shown in the result, and select Run as administrator.

  • Start a capture session by pasting this sequence of commands into the command prompt window:

logman create trace -n usbtrace -o %SystemRoot%Tracingusbtrace.etl -nb 128 640 -bs 128
logman update trace -n usbtrace -p Microsoft-Windows-USB-USBXHCI (Default,PartialDataBusTrace)
logman update trace -n usbtrace -p Microsoft-Windows-USB-UCX (Default,PartialDataBusTrace)
logman update trace -n usbtrace -p Microsoft-Windows-USB-USBHUB3 (Default,PartialDataBusTrace)

logman update trace -n usbtrace -p Microsoft-Windows-USB-USBPORT
logman update trace -n usbtrace -p Microsoft-Windows-USB-USBHUB
logman update trace -n usbtrace -p Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-IoTrace 0 2
logman start -n usbtrace

  • Perform the action that you want to capture. For example, plug in a USB flash drive that shows up as an Unknown device in Device Manager. Keep the command prompt window open.
  • Stop the session when you're finished by pasting this sequence of commands into the same command prompt window:

logman stop -n usbtrace
logman delete -n usbtrace
move /Y %SystemRoot%Tracingusbtrace_000001.etl %SystemRoot%Tracingusbtrace.etl

  • Upload the file %SystemRoot%Tracingusbtrace.etl to SkyDrive or similar, e.g. see instructions to upload to SkyDrive here:
